《左傳》吳王夫差之人物形象析論

An Analysis of the Image of Wu's Fu-Chai in "Zuo Zhuan"

摘要


本文就《左傳》中與吳王夫差相關之記進行探討,對夫差形象及形象塑造之技巧與意義進行分析。《左傳》中的吳王夫差形象,是矛盾並列的複雜性格,如氣質性情恣縱卻又勇烈,又如行事風格自信積極卻也剛愎驕矜,因此《左傳》對吳王夫差的人物評價,可以歸結為「雄心勃勃卻成亡國之君」。至於《左傳》對吳王夫差形象塑造所運用的藝術手法,乃「側筆烘托的不寫之寫」、「預言敘事之總結與呼應」、「縱橫對比手法之運用」。《左傳》以含蓄、蘊藉、迂迴、曲折、間接、旁面、不寫之寫的方式,刻劃烘托出亡國霸主夫差其人,而此形象因為許多亡國預言之總結,與隨著預言得證之呼應又被加強深化。「縱橫對比」手法則是以闔廬之賢對比夫差之不賢,以無禮、無能之伯嚭得夫差重用,對比忠貞有遠見之伍子胥遭夫差下令自殺,藉此凸顯夫差亡國之君的形象。而《左傳》中吳王夫差形象背後所隱含之意義,則是具「歷史資鑑與微言深義」,左氏以中原華夏的文化禮教之價值觀形塑、批判吳王夫差其人形象,並以驕兵必敗的歷史教訓勸人戒驕侈、謙守禮。

This study aims to analyze the image of Wu's Fu-Chai(夫差)in ”Zuo Zhuan”(左傳)and the associated meaning. The image of Fu-Chai in ”Zuo Zhuan” depicts a complicated personality filled with contradiction. Fu-Chai in ”Zuo Zhuan” is indulgent yet brave, and self-confident yet proud. He is an ambitious monarch that leads the country towards destruction. Four aspects of image-building skills and meaning are discussed: the first is an indirect description, the second is a summary of Fu-Chai's destiny through prophecies, the third employs a contrast of good and bad between Fu-Chai and his father and his two subordinates, and the fourth explains how the image of Fu-Chai in Zuo Zhuan reflects Chinese values and offers a historical lesson.
